MultivariateMedianDeviation
MultivariateMedianDeviation[matrix]
gives the median Euclidean distance from the median of the elements in matrix.
Details and Options
- To use MultivariateMedianDeviation, you first need to load the Multivariate Statistics Package using Needs["MultivariateStatistics`"].
- MultivariateMedianDeviation is a univariate measure of median deviation for multivariate data.
- The multivariate median deviation is given by the median of the list {Norm[x1-
],Norm[x2-
],…}, where matrix={x1,x2,…,xn} and 
is the median of matrix. - The following option can be given:
-
MedianMethod Median the median to use - Valid settings for MedianMethod are Median, SimplexMedian, ConvexHullMedian, and SpatialMedian.
